Stride out alongside Hadrian’s Wall with your faithful friend at your heel. This three-bedroom Cumbrian cottage near Castle Carrock, 5.5 miles from Brampton, sleeps six guests and welcomes canine companions with open paws. In addition to stylish accommodation, it has a hot tub for you to bubble in and a wood burner for your canine companion to curl up beside.
Call your chum into the cottage, which is attached to a farmhouse but enjoys its privacy. Head upstairs to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to give him a well-earned meal. Take in the incredible rolling views from here. Stoke up the wood burner so he can doze in its gentle heat while you enjoy your own delicious meal. Pull the bi-folding doors back onto the balcony instead on hot summer days. Spend pleasant evenings together, giving your chum plenty of puppy love as you watch the Smart TV. There is also a utility room with a WC at this level. Give your contented canine a last stroke before bed, then head off to lay your own head on your pillow. At the cottage, you have a king-size bedroom plus two super-king-sizes. One of these has an en-suite bathroom and the other has beds that can be arranged as two singles if discussed in advance. Dine on the balcony against the beautiful backdrop while your delighted dog mills about in the sunshine. Unwind in the hot tub as the stars begin to appear. There is private parking for two cars. Guests have access to leisure facilities at a local hotel.
